Comparing 3 ID blockchain tokens right now there is @peaq, @worldcoin @idOS_network
peaq → IDs for machines and also humans; decentralized, privacy-preserving; early adoption
Worldcoin → iris-based proof of personhood; offers tokens; under heavy regulatory scrutiny and ethical debate
dOS → face-based reusable KYC; self-custody of data; currently permissioned
kinda funny each one doing its own ID take.. here's what I think below
🧵👇 (1/4)
peaq’s Machine ID@peaqnetwork’s machine‑ID Machines can prove who they are via cryptographic challenge‑response, enabling a peer‑to‑peer “machine economy.” But it’s faster in being multichain compared with the other two here
Worldcoin scans your iris with a silver “orb” and issues a World ID. It claims to delete raw biometric data and uses zero‑knowledge proofs. The goal is to prove you’re human in an AI‑dominated web.
@idOS_network offers a portable identity for the stablecoin economy. You verify your face once on your own device; the video is processed inside an encrypted enclave, converted into a non‑reversible “FaceVector” and deleted. Your credentials are stored in encrypted self‑custodial storage
(2/4)
the @idOS_network lets users reuse their KYC across multiple DeFi apps, reducing friction . However, the network is currently permissioned and relies on trusted operators . It also depends on AWS Nitro enclaves for processing .
Regulators in Spain, Portugal, Argentina and Kenya have suspended or investigated Worldcoin over concerns about data collection from minors and lack of consent . Critics call scanning eyeballs for crypto dystopian and worry about misuse of biometric data
(3/4)
My takeaways on these 3 @peaq @worldcoin @idOS_network
Biometric or blockchain‑based IDs can empower new digital economies, but they also raise serious privacy and governance questions.
Trust depends on transparent governance, minimal data collection and clear consent.
As these projects evolve, regulators and users will decide which models succeed, so we will see what happens to these 3 IDs tokens: (4/4)
